Cocktails were pretty sweet, but looked good. Hummus was tasty but consistency was poor. Maybe too much overdressing, its almost like a sauce consistency than a spread or dip. Kachapuri and pita bread were good(that's the best of thefood we had here actually). Kabobs were okay, but we've had much better in the neighborhood. Biggest disappointment was wholeoven charred cauliflower. Totally under seasoned. Can't say service was great either. In short, you go without muchexpectations, you'll be okay. Just an avg place... Sorry, don't think we'll be back.

Our meal consisted of: chickpea/hard egg hummus, really liked the consistency of the hummus and flavors. fries, my niece and nephew loved these! The aioli wasreally good too. The crispness of the fries was perfect. I wish there was a little more za’atar spice though khachapuri ,this is one of my favorite dishes, definitely recommend it skirt steak, was cooked perfectly and the pepper with it was verynicely roasted and the sauces that came with it were fantastic chicken, this was cooked very well but not my favorite dishas chicken is just kind of a boring for me cauliflower, the char on it was so good and pairing it with the sauce just broughtthe flavors together so well. Only tough part was carving the cauliflower. Might be good to cut it in half when serving Ishared a bottle of the Lo Fi Gamay/Pinot noir and I highly recommend it as well. I think small improvements could be made, butI’ve eaten here 3 times and have loved almost everything

We loved the margarita, the Negroni, and the extensive wine list as drinks. The hummus is a must as a starter recommend the cauliflower or eggplant ontop. For shares, the cauliflower and sweet potatoes were delicious vegan choices while the beet salad and khachapuri werevegetarian crowd pleasers.
